The stay was nice and had a good view of the ocean. Be aware there is limited breakfast but the good thing is that Catalina is an island with plethora of food so it is not necessary. There were some couple cracks and my dispenser did not have soap when I came in.

Clean, hot water and great water pressure in shower. Bed was firm, yet comfy! Loved they had blackout curtains and the heater/ac/fan unit worked amazingly. I was on the third floor, loved the quirky stairs and little alcoves. Cute place!

Nice place conveniently located. Clean. Only complaint was there was a wedding at the Museum next door and the sound echoed so it was hard to hear the TV or sleep. Nice thing was it stopped sometime between10 and 11 which was nice. Normally not a big deal it is just we were getting up very early to hike. We would stay there again

Pretty Place
This is a very nice property for people (like us) who can easily handle a lot of stair climbing. The plantings added a lot & were well-maintained. The main second floor patio would benefit from tall chairs & tables to match, so guests could sit, drink a glass of wine & see the ocean. We wound up relocating to the smaller rear 3rd floor patio, which worked after my girlfriend got a blanket out of our room & put it on top of her chair. We had a problem getting our luggage out of the storage room after lunch - no one was in the office, but a friendly lady promptly responded when we called the emergency number.
